Debt collection company CACV of Colorado, LLC (which also apparently goes by the names CACH, LLC and Collect America), through its law firm Hollins Schechter, has dismissed a lawsuit against my firm's client just a few days before trial. The lawsuit brought claims for breach of contract, money had and received, and account stated and sought $23,137.79 plus interest, costs, and attorney fees in relation to an alleged credit card account. The case was being heard in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Barbara.
When sued by a debt collector, it is vitally important that consumers learn their rights and protect their interests and not allow a default judgment to be entered against them. Any consumer in California sued by a debt collector can obtain a free consultation with me by emailing me at psmith@paulsmithlaw.com or by calling my office at (858) 679-3396.
